2013-2014 Programs by Discipline

I wouldn't say she is fat. But Tuk looks like shes going the same way as rachael flatt.

Bingo, you hit the million dollar jackpot

Tuk = Rachael Flatt 2.0

they have the same body type, so she needs extra effort to control her weight
Mishin only has himself to blame if her career ends early because of her weight like Flatt did

I dont get all the detractors, the one medal per deal definitely helps for people with body type like Tuk
 
I find Tuk's legs more muscular than Rachel's. As I said she is udmurt, that is a little Uralic nationality, I don't think we can find among them a girl who is tall and she has long thin legs...
 
dorispulaski, just curious: what's your source for Jeremy Abbott's SP music? I don't recall the music as having been announced publicly yet.

Adam Rippon's SP is to "Suite from Carmen for Strings and Drums" by Georges Bizet & Rodion Shchedrin, choreographed by Cindy Stuart (Turandot was last year's SP that he skated at 2013 Gardena Spring Trophy): http://www.figureskatersonline.com/adamrippon/programs.html

Timothy Dolensky is keeping his Senior FS from last season:
"Il Postino" by Luis Bacalov, "Payadora" by Lisandro Adrover

Shotaro Omori's Senior/Junior SP music is from The Last Airbender film soundtrack (possibly includes "Flow Like Water" but this is yet to be confirmed).

Nathan Chen's Junior SP music reportedly is from Vivaldi's "Four Seasons."

I think there's a bit of confusion based on this Twitter convo: https://twitter.com/TheRobinCousins/status/336056416479633408

In May, Akiko Suzuki sent a tweet complementing Jeremy on his program (not sure SP or FS), then Robin Cousins in turn tweeted "And you'll be a 'Vie En Rose'." However I think that is in reference to Akiko, not Jeremy. But Akiko is actually doing her program "Hymne à l'amour," which was a song populized by the same person who sang "La Vie En Rose."

So we don't have confirmation of Jeremy's music.

If you mean one meal per day, I'm going to have to ask where you learned about basic nutrition because :unsure: As someone who once competed in very weight-conscious sports (wrestling & judo are full of kids who use various dangerous methods to make weight such as dehydrating themselves and starving themselves, drastically reducing their diets, or adopting unbalanced diets), I get the feeling you have no idea how this works... If Liza & Mishin ever feel the need for her to lose a safe amount of weight over an appropriate (i.e., extended) amount of time, they should contact a sports nutritionist who, if properly trained, would never advise such a diet scheme.
 
She isn't fat, she is overweight for a figure skater and it is very possible to gain more weight in the years to come. I've seen other pictures from Pinzolo and they were less favorable.

How do you know that she's overweight for a figure skater? What does that even mean? :unsure:
 
It's horrifying that this has become such an issue. She is a teenager who is filling out. She does not look overweight, nor do we have any source fact that she is, and it really isn't anybody's business. Yes, the sylph like silhouette looks amazing on the ice and the lines look fine and dandy, but please- Tonya and Midori who were powerful skaters (one being more artistic than the other) weren't exactly thin. Chen Lu wasn't, Butyrskaya, Slutskaya, Yuka Sato, at one point Kwan, the list goes on- and yet, they all had successful careers. Yes, health and nutrition is important in this sport but writing someone out because somebody decided a skater had 'weight issues'?
 
^This. IMO, comments like "so-and-so skater needs to lose weight" and "so-and-so skater is getting too heavy to be competitive" are extremely destructive and should be removed immediately. It's a very personal issue and none of our business besides. These are professional athletes we're talking about -- they have coaching teams, and more than likely, sports nutritionists who know much more about their health than we do. Period. End of story.
 
And yet sky_fly20 is still here and others have been banned.

Dunno what Liza or Artur have ever done to sky_fly20, but she abuses them routinely with a passion. They could both win Olympic gold and she's still call them fat and useless.

:rolleye: did I ever said in here she is fat or overweight ?? never
I said she has weight issues and needs to control it by having 1 meal a day for effective quick weight loss

as others have pointed out, her career is going the Racahel Flatt route, that is alarming
I want her to stay in FS for a long time unlike what happened to Flatt
